What does a Marijuana (obs) merged charge mean when given a dui for alcohol?

In 2003, i received a dui for alcohol after leaving a party. I was given 30days suspended license and alcohol classes. I thought the marijuana charge was dismissed, but upon receiving a background check 13yrs later, it was brought to my attention that the charge says "merged" and not dismissed.
